Soft x-ray tomoholography

Abstract: We demonstrate an x-ray imaging method that combines Fourier transform holography with tomography ('tomoholography') for threedimensional (3D) microscopic imaging. A 3D image of a diatom shell with a spatial resolution of 140 nm is presented. The experiment is realized by using a small gold sphere as the reference wave source for holographic imaging. This setup allows us to rotate the sample and to collect a number of 2D projections for tomography.

“…Given the limitations of the approach demonstrated here as compared to obtaining 3D information via tomography [3,7], we anticipate the application of this 3D imaging method especially for weakly absorbing samples, e.g. for research in life science, in situations where the acquisition of many projection images is not possible.…”

“…In addition, the off-axis geometry of the reference wave source from the object effectively spatially separates the twin-images occurring in the hologram reconstruction. Due to these advantages and its simple experimental design, FTH with X-rays is routinely applied in numerous experiments such as relating to imaging nanomagnetic structures [26][27][28][29][30][31][32] or biological specimen [7,13,21,33].…”

“…Consequently, the transmission through the circular reference aperture is already blocked at tilt angles of approximately arctan 0.2 11 ( ) »°, resulting in an accessible angular range which is too small for tomography. Nevertheless, it is possible to combine soft-x-ray FTH with tomography using an optically inverted sample design: the reference aperture is replaced by a small absorber or scatterer, located on a transparent support membrane in close proximity to the object to be imaged [8]. While this open-membrane approach allows for sample rotation and retains the advantages of monolithically coupling the sources of object and reference waves, the large amount of directly transmitted light creates a large background intensity in the hologram.…”
